Kanazawa University Research: Biotechnology-based genetic typing of a bacterium

The genetic typing of the bacterium Pseudomonas putida is described by researchers at Kanazawa University in scientific reports. Normally, the bacterium is not highly infectious but isolated from various clinical sites.

Pseudomonas putida is a bacterium that occurs in soil, water and plants. Although Pseudomonas p. virulence— the bacterium's capacity to invade its host and spread disease — is considered low, the infec....
